Haha, I did bust my ass when quitting before. The fact that I was doing it for my girlfriend made me still think about using it more. Also now my friends are supporting me. I used to have friends that used to make me feel like I had to chew. I'm not doing this for the 'boob' . I love her, but I feel the need to kick the can. I'm doing really good. I had a lot of headaches last night. I had a great sleep and woke up feeling anew. My journey is not over and I know I need to stay strong. I am planing on having one hundred and fifteen days of sobriety from tobacco before I become baptized in the catholic church. It is easier knowing that I also have God to talk to and listen to. Day two is going great in progress. I'm running a 5k later. Looking forward to day three!

I've tried to quit before, but this time it's different. I'm doing it for me.
Why? Not busting your chops. You did not explain.

Why?

Hi, my name is Brandon and I decided last night that I was quitting chewing tobacco. It hurt my relationship with my beautiful girlfriend. I've tried to quit before, but this time it's different. I'm doing it for me. I used to try and quit for her and it didn't work. I felt like she was trying to change me and I used to be offended by that. Now I understand that she was just looking out for the best of me. I got to the point where I lied about chewing to her. When I hung out with her I would start to get headaches and crave tobacco. She thought that she was doing something wrong in our relationship. The reason I feel good about quitting is because it's hurt me so much.it also helps that I have been able to talk and open up to my girlfriend even though we are on a break.

This first day has been for the majority easy. I have had some cravings and headaches. They are bearable. The only thing I'm worried about is how I feel after work tonight. I just have to stay headstrong. I know the worst of it is yet to come. I'm ready for it, so bring it on!
"it also helps that I have been able to talk and open up to my girlfriend even though we are on a break"

Dude...you better be doing this for you and not for 'boob'

Take this shit seriously because most folks on here do. Read everything on here and post roll every day - early - promising to "quit for today". Then repeat each day. The more you read from the HOF veterans the more you will understand what the hell is going on. It will help you deal with the crap. Glad to quit with you today.
In the mid 70s, Walt Garrison said it was okay. Just a pinch between your cheek and gums. Been a slave since until joining this fine group.

Quit 12:00 pm (noon) October 15, 2011 after 34 years.
HOF January 23, 2012

It's not how many times you get knocked down, but how many times you get back up that matters.

The first day can be kind of easy because you are jacked up, but what wham the next few days come along and kick your ass. Be prepared, cause it isn't easy. It is possible though. Count the minutes, but the more distance you put between you and nicotine the easier it will get. Go over to March and post your word and make some friends. You should also get some numbers. If you need one just ask.

Also......good choice on a name.
Time heals but I'm forever broken
